about

Living behind a "forced grin", as the official narrative is wearing thin. Jerky, quirky and awkwardly funky.

lyrics

Uncomfortable in my Skin
Uncomfortable in my skin, I’m just not fitting in.
I live behind a forced grin, this story is wearing thin.
I compose a suitable pose, feel like one of these, not like one of those,
you can fool some, some of the time and fool yourself that this is fine.

Uncomfortable in my skin and I just can’t scratch what lies within.
Uncomfortable in my skin and just can’t scratch the lies within.

My costume is neat and trim, but it chafes at my thin skin.
Too much chintz and too many pleats, fail to hide what I lack beneath.

Uncomfortable in my skin, and i just can’t hide what I lack within.
Uncomfortable in my skin, someone stupid has moved in.

He’s uncomfortable in his skin. She’s just not fitting in.
They’re uncomfortable in their skin. Come on, let’s look at them.

I dance ahead of the the beat, these shoes pinch at both my left feet.
It’s the choreography of a cheat, my next step is my defeat.

Uncomfortable in my skin, and i just can’t hide what I lack within.
Uncomfortable in my skin, someone stupid has moved in.
Uncomfortable in my skin, I just can’t scratch the lies within.
Uncomfortable in my skin. Who’s getting taken in?
